Virginia Beach Juvenile Crime Lawyer

Has your child been charged with a juvenile crime?

If your child has been charged with a juvenile crime it can greatly affect future opportunities. He or she might not be able to get accepted into a university or find a job. This can also affect a young person emotionally and psychologically. You will need a Virginia Beach criminal defense attorney to help you defend your child. At Thoman Law, PLLC I have 5 ½ years of experience as a former prosecutor and have been successful in thousands of cases.

A juvenile crime involves underage DUI, possession of drugs, alcohol, or a deadly weapon, assault, vandalism, curfew violations, or theft among other crimes. If it is a serious crime they can be tried as an adult. It is important to defend your child before they are convicted. If convicted, a young offender can be sentenced to a juvenile correction center, a rehabilitation center, probation, or community service.
